Before you book JK Moving Services
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC504611
JK Moving Services can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC504611. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask which truck and crew you get
JK Moving Services had 10 roadside inspections in 24 months and 0 vehicle out-of-service orders (0.0% against 19.0%). The record covers the company; the truck and crew on your day are what you are buying.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
JK Moving Services files 3 tractors. If a full rig cannot reach your door, the move needs a shuttle truck, which is a separate line on the bill; ask before the estimate is written.
- 4
Ask whose truck arrives
2 of the 26 power units JK Moving Services files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 1300300, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $485 – $803
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Gaithersburg at $485 – $803 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $1,040 – $1,386. A surveyed, written estimate from JK Moving Services far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
